The Defence of Lucknow and the Highland Pipes in War
Tennyson’s verse evokes the siege of Lucknow echoed by Highland bagpipes in Crimea and Tirah. Piper Findlater earned fame at Dargai while Lilian Starr’s 1923 rescue passed a cemetery where 300 Gordon Highlanders lay buried with bagpipes shrilling. The pipes also mark peaceful Burns suppers and other moments beyond battle.
